Statements on open-house Saturday

Thomas Lenz, Ludwigshafen

“What I particularly like about the BASF Visitor Center is that everything is very clearly laid out and well explained using practical application examples. There is simple information that everybody can understand, as well as additional explanations that go into more depth.”

Gisela Münster, Pfedelbach

“The guides at the BASF Visitor Center have incredible knowledge and provide you with further information on almost any topic. I was particularly fascinated to learn that BASF recycles the majority of the residual materials that are generated in production. I think the fact that science is tackling challenges in society and looking to the future here is tremendous.”

Beate Jäger, Plankstadt

“We as a whole family visited the Kids‘ Lab, enjoyed a guided tour of the plant and explored the exhibition together. The exhibition is particularly great for kids as there are lots of interactive exhibits to touch and experiment with. I also particularly enjoyed the tour of the plant. BASF is like a city in its own right – I even discovered geraniums by one production building – the sheer size is really impressive.”

Lutfi Alali Musaab, Wallstadt

“I think the idea behind BASF’s Verbund system is great. Making efficient use of resources definitely represents a very forward-looking approach. The links between the production facilities in the form of the pipelines that can be seen on the tour of the plant are a really amazing feat of engineering. BASF is a very special company.”

Robin Henz, Ruppertsberg

“We went on a guided tour of the treasure chamber. It was very exciting to pick up so many details about BASF’s history and to learn about BASF’s diversity. I think the original view of the plant from 1881 is brilliant. It is impressive to see all the changes that have occurred over the centuries.”

Manuela Stähle, Bietigheim

“My husband works at BASF and I am therefore particularly excited to have the chance to visit BASF. In the exhibition I was amazed to discover all the different products that BASF is involved in producing – it is remarkable. I think it’s really great that everything in the exhibition is laid out in a very clear and understandable way.”
